REOEGAMZATIUN. "We tako the following interesting article on ^Ecclesiastical Itcor-gunizationfrom ft New York ex change ef a recent date : Tho Episcopal Church, the grand bulwark Against radical diee-ont and New England fanati cism, is about to bo subjected to a trying ordeal which, will test its Ancient character for fraternal unity. The late war, ruthloaa liko tho scyth;- of Time, eovored the sacred associations and commu nion which existed between the churchmen, North and South, and the great Episcopal body was divi ded, in obedienco to the inexorable necessities of the insurrection. But there are well grounded jkopes that, in the words of Moore, euch "Hearts that had been long estranged, And friends that had grown cold. Should meet again like parted Kticams, Aud triumph a_ at old ! " There arc, however, prospective obstacles lo the Unity of the Episcopal Church, which may bo in creased by a lack oi charity among Northern di vines, who in the exercise of intense "loyalty," may not only ho desirous of forgetting th? over ruling ties of common brethren, hut may seek to crush tho broken reed, and triumph over a fallen foe. Happily the Church has but few of this class wit bin her fold. Tho small number of churchmen who, in tho language of Becoher. desired the an nihilation of tho South, have but little Influence. Some of them have relations holding positions in -various Federal departments, and an odd war blast from their pulpits have helped their rela tives considerably to retain their sinecures under the late administration. But the grand period of peaeo has come when loyalty must be gratuitous. - The wind and tide of Episcopacy is against their craft now, and they cannot work against them. Ecclesiastical fawnings aro at a discount, and an athemas arc as powerless as hull? against comets. The great mass of churchmen heartily yearn for unity with their, brethren of tho South, and those ' who oppose it on nny vindictive or political plea will become as degraded in orders as if they liud been stripped in a chancel of then? surplices by tho edict of their bishop. This feeling prevails among churchmen everywhere. It is echoed in iiicir journals ; it is now the engrossing topic of all their discussions. There is a genoral desire to forget and forgive the course of Southern churchmen during the war, when tho rebel picket linen and great armies cut oil' all communication with the North, thus exposing them to the prepon derating elements in their niidst. In order to ef fect tliis oblivion of the past, it is determined by many to discai-d everything which will revive the circumstances which led to the briof schism iu tho church. THE TRIENNIAL EPISCOPAL CONVENTION. Thc80 facts invest tho approaching triennial convention with more than ordinary importance. Jt had not, in its memorable history, such a bur den of ecclesiastical legislation au will fall on its ?shoulders in October, when its sessions will be held in tho Quaker City. All church councils, during past centuricB, have been shocked by schism, and ?ven days when great conclaves of prolatcs had the power to command, and the civil law to sus tain them in enforcing unity, they have sought to effect it, wherever possible, by unimportant com promises. TIi?b lesson of history will not be loBt on the convention, who will have to make no doc trinal or disciplinary compromiso, but simply to veceive again their Southern brethren in the pa rent-fold. THE FOWEJIS OF THE CONVENTION. The convention is composed of the House of Bishops, which embraces tho diocesan and mis sionary prelates throughout the United StateB, and of the House of Lay and Clerical Deputies, consisting of four laymen and four clergymen Trom each diocese. Its powers are limited, and its lato sessions have been principally devoted to the progress of the church. It can make no al teration in the constitution or in the liturgy and c&iceB, unless they have been adopted in ono con vention, submitted to the diocese and, afterwards, adopted by another convention?a work which would occupy at least four years. THE HOUSE OF BISHOPS is cojnposcd of tho following prelates, which we give in the order of their consecration : -Bishop Hopkins.Vermont.consecrated 1832 Bishop B. Smith.Kentucky.consecrated 1832 --Bishop Mcllvciue_Ohio.consecrated 1832 Bishop Koinp?r.Wisconsin.consecrated 1836 Blflhop McCoeky.Michigan.consecrated 1830 Bishop Whittingham.

New York... .consecrated 1805 It will be thus Been that tho House of Bishops is composed of thirty-five prelates. The war, how ever, prevented tho Southern Bishops being pres ent at the last triennial convention. THE HOUSE OF LAY AND CI__aiCA_ DEPUTIES is composed of nearly three hundred members, who aro Bent to represent each diocese. Tho de jare for unity among New York Churchmen is am ply shown in tho selection of Governor Seymour as a delegate. Ho and kindred gentlemen will _ead tho houso against any attempt the radicals may make to prevent the admission of the South ern church. The mere orison for tho President of tho Confederate StateB, which superseded for the timo being the prayer for tho lawful President of tho United State?, is, happily, no part of the disci JiHno or worship of Son t hern churchmen: and it is usUy agreed that the civil authorities alono have tho right to toko cognizr.nco of such au innova tion. ThiB question will, however, create; doubt less, a lengthy debate, if tho presiding divine docs not rulo tho subject, as is anticipated. THE SOUTH 1?BN ErlSCOMXl CONVENTION. In tho second year there was an independent convention of Win Southern Episcopal Church. It was then resolved to mcot trionnially, and by luianimous MTOOment the next sessions wero to bo held next November in Mobile. Tho triumph of tho national arms, however, have so disarranged tho ptuns of the convention, that no preparations arc being made to moot at the time stated. An anticipation, that the convention to assemble in Philadelphia will deal uncharitably with Southern churchmen, had led Mme of tho Southern bishops to revive the agreement to hold another indepen dent convention in Mobile. By this strategy they will be enabled to know tho temper of the Phila delphia body, before agreeing to any terms of union. In order to effect this plan, a mischievous euggoijtion has been made that all Southerners should keep away from the Triennial Convention. This premature opposition can be overcome by ratifying the two main acts of the Southern Con vention sinco the war?the creation of Arkansas as .a new diocese, and the consecration of the Bight Bcv. Dr. Wihncr as Bishop of South Caro lina. FnATERNITT WITH OTnEU DENOMINATIONS. Varions other subjects will call forth the atten tion of the convention. The pastoral of Bishop Patter against the fraternity proposed to be estab lished between Low Church* minist?re and thoso or other d?nominations will doubtless create an animated debate. It is stated that a new canon w?l bo presented in favor of allowing the prac tices of which BiBhop Potter complained; and thoso who know both Houses sufficiently to estimate their aggregate views on all questions declare that Bishop Potter's action will be sustained. Tho bishop is a favorite with the upper House, who will doubtless support his action. The majority of tho convention may be classed as partially Low Churchmen, but they have no sympathy with the alleged "doctrinal''"radicalism of the denomina tions. COMMUNION WITH THE RUflSO-OKEEE CHUHCH. This will be another subject of great contention, among the house of clerical and lay deputies. The Greek services which took place in"Trinity Chapel somo time since created considerable excitement in the Low Church branch of Episcopacy. Some of the divines of that branch have maintained that the Greek service is, virtually, the Raman Catho lic masa, and that trne fellowship with the Greek Church cannot be effected, except at the expense of the leading doctrines of the Episcopal Church. Tho committee who have been charged with the duty of considering the feasibility of communion between tho Episcopal and Rnseo-Greek Churches, will present a report ou the subject to the conven tion. The committee consists of Bishops Williams and Whitehnune, Rev. I?rs. Thrall and Mahan, Rev. Dr. J. F. Young, and Messrs. Samuel B. Bug gies and S. Elliott. These are Ihe principal questions to be decided by the convention. ? ? Letter from General Henry A. Wise to General Cirant, "Wo take the following from n Bk'hmond cot cm porary?the 2'inies?of the 5th. It is among the most remarkable of the productions of a most re markable man : Our readers will remember that General Wise reccutly made application to General Terry for permission to return to his home in Princess Anne county, as under the terms of his parole. General Terry (through General Mann) refused, for speci fied reasons. Under date of September 1st, General Wise has written a letter to General Grant, forwarded through General Terry, from which we make ex tracts. Hcreplies in succession to the points made in the letter of refusal, and after declaring that he never "abandoned *his homo" except in going to camp to defend it against invasion, with the full determination to return to it as soon as tho chances of war should permit, he says : "I found no new home for my family; they were simply refugees from the old." He then writes as follows: "If General Terry was governed by earnest and honest convictions of duty, of right and authority in all he did?so was I. if he was a. patriot?so was I. If he gave proof of his devotion?so did I. If he thought he had the shield of constitutional law and political sovereignty to protect liim against the charge of rebellion and treason?so I thought I had. If ho loved and cherished tho Union of these St ates, I loved and cherished it so cordially that I never from choice would have se ceded from it, but prepared tot?sdit 'in the Union;' aud if ho wonders how I now can truly declare these sentiments, after voting for secession and taking up arniB against the acta of tho Federal Executive and Congress, I must beg him to re member that he and I have been taught in diff?r ent schools of politics; and that will account for our differences of opinion, and ought to allow a large margin for charity at least, if not toleration. If Tic was trained in tho school of Hamilton and tho elder Adams, I was in that of Jefferson and Madison; and he would boldly expose himself to the charge of bigotry and presumption who would charge either scliool with teaching rebellion and treason. It is dangerous to either to adopt the dogmas of treason and rebellion against the other, alternating in domination as they havo dono so often already in our history. Each might shoot and hang the other by turns in the course of half a century. "If General Terry behoved in consolidation. I be lieved in States' rights and powers. If he believed that the Federal Executive and Congress and the judiciary possessed absolute, I believed they had only relative and delegated sovereignty. If he be lieved that they wero unchecked and unbalanced bv other powers, I behoved that tho whole system of the United States, State and Federal, wsb com posed of reciprocal checks and balances, and that the sovereign States were the basis, checks and balances of the Federal Government. I was taught that the States were not unum, but e pluritus unum, and this many in one, one in many. When called a rebel, I shall point to tho-of Vir ginia's buckler, and claim that my sovereign State is solo sponsor for tho acts of her own citizens and subjects. I am no rebel or traitor, and never was, ana my State cannot bo either. She has still a sovereignty by the Constitution of the United States, and by tho original authority before it ever existed, unless she is now utterly demolished by subjugation, and unless that is destroyed by any force which has demolished her. "Theso are still the tenets of my faith, and I bo liovo these truths will perpotually revive and pre vail to preserve tho republican freedom of ihe people of the United States. When the civil liberty for which I devoutly pray really comes again, I can, without hindrance, fall on tho bosom of my country and weep with hor "for any wrongs we havo ?one." I am now a prisoner on parolo. I daro not note ask of her any favor, great or small. I claim only of her ??ood faith, tho precious privi lege, promised mo by her highest agents, to go to my homo and bo at peace. * * * "So far from my being opposed to tho namo 'freedmen* as indicating tho condition of slavos freed by the war, tho chief consolation I have in tho result of tho war is that slavery is forovor abolished?that not only tho slaves are in fact, at least, freed from bondage, but that I am freed from them. Long before tho war, indeed, I had definitely made up my mind actively to advocate emancipation throughout the South. I had deter mined, if I could help it, my descendants should never bo subject to the humiliation I huvo beon subject to by tho weakness, if not the wickedness. of slavery; and while I cannot recognize as lawful and humane tho violent and shocking mode in which it has been abolished, yet I accept the fact most heartily as an accomplished ono, and am de termined not onlv to abide by it and acquiesce in it, hut to strive, by all the moans in my power, to make it beneficent to both races and a blessing especially to our country. I nnfeigncdly rejoice at the fact, and am reconciled to many of tho worst calamities of tho war, because I am now convinced that tho war was a special providenco of God, un avoidable by the nations at either ex treme, to tear loose from us a black idol from which we could never havo been separated by any other means than thoso of 0ro and blood, sword Und sacrifice," 4 The Citolera in Turkey. Const ant] Norm., August 11.?Thorn is no Ion:* ? J.ny doubt na to tho nalim? of the epidemic which . ?H ravaging this motrnpoUt. and its neighboring i village?.

It is chiclly.??i?oiig tho poorer i classes that this dreadful scourge has, up to the j prchent timo, committed such havoc. In the crowded and lilthy habitations of the Jews, nm.v.:^ tho Qalata porters, and now in the crowded qnor ters of Stamboul, thoy uro dying faster than they can bury thnm. Nor can tlie hitherto considered salubrious villages of the lissphoruB escape; on?i after another, they arc swept by tho pestiferous malady. Thorapia, tho summer rcsidouco of tin; elite oi our society, liusbcen bo particularly altli?:. ed that it is now quilo deserted; many who have fled there for safety have rushed to other places, to be again driven forth, aB one after another the different villages become infected. In fact, such a cowardly panic exists that wer? it not so serions in its consequences it would he ridiculous. At Thora pia tho dead and dying were left by their affrighted 1'rieuds, who lied as soon a? tho* poor creatures were attacked; and tho noble courage displayed by some of the gentlemen of tho English ?111 baBBy, who, amid the panic, searched out and attended the dying and tho dead, is beyond all praise, ministering with their own hands to the wants of tho dying ones, and searching out thoso left unburicd. As many as fifty bodies were found thus deserted. In -timo cases tho doctors have refused to visit the pationts afllicled with cholera, but I must give the rest credit for Ihe noble devotion they have displayed in this trying emergoncy. Many have succumbed to the disease and the fatigue entailed upon them. T?i the gov ernment, also, great praise is due for the Ktrenu 0U8.efforts it is making to arrest the malady and assist the afflicted; in some cases nobly supported by public charity?tho Free Masons especially, having, at their own expense, established nmbii lunces, hospitals, and free dispensaries; but with all these efforts many districts arc entirely without medical assistance of any eort. In the* crowded haunts of Scutari they are dying in hundreds, en tirely uncaied for, with no medicines, and no doctors to help then. Among our small English community wo have to deplore the less of many a wflH-romombered face, wnich is not surprising, considering tho place most of the engineers in habit (a dirty village near the Arsenal and Cas sini Pasha), in which place the disease first de clared itself. All the Government works are suspended ami d.Horganir.ed. The arsenal, Tophana, tie., are quite deserted. The public office. are also almost entirely closed, the custom lions?? being only opoa two hours a ?lav. In fact, such is the scarcity of labor caused by the destruction of the hitnutls (porters) thai t-'iips huve great difficulty in un loiuling and taking in cargoes. Tho oiico busy streets of Qalata are quite d'.serted, shops and of fices closed, and bindnOM of all kinds quite sus ponded. I have no doubt the epidemic has been much aggravated hv the abject fear of the in habitants, ?'oinbine?. with the too free use of ardent spirits (of the worst description) which many indulge in at the present time, and the nnnsiia) heat which now prevails. At Smyrna, the nialadv still continues its ravages, arid, if possible, tlie disorganisation of that place is worse than Constantinople. At Eeyront, also, and most of the towns i:i the Levant, tho disease is committing fearful ravage??; in fact, to such an extent that Die wh??lc of tho empire is perfectly demoralized. In Wattacbia and Moldavia the. pan ic is spreading, although by the last accounts tho ?lisease had not declared itself; tho inhabitants were all ready for a bolt on its first appearance. At Soulina ? few cases havo occurred, entirely shutting up all business; ships are detained wait ing for their cargoes, which the lighters refuse to bring ?town the river. With all this excitomout you will readily understand that very little atten tion is paid to politics or speculations. The noisy Bourse, with its crowd of eager gamesters, is quite deserted; even the conversion scheme is Eostpoued sine die*. I am happy to say there has cen a diminution in the number of deaths the last two days, and it is hoped that we havo scon the worst of this terrible affliction. - ? The Cotton Girt. According to statistics furnished by tho last census, it appears that tho manufacturo of this article has heretofore been principally confined to the Soutlieru States. In lHoO it amounted in value to $1,077,315; and out of fifty-livo establishments, all but three were Southern?sixteen in Alabama, twelve in Georgia, three in Mississippi, and four in Texas. In 1792, the year preceding its introduction, tho cotton exported from the Southern States Amount ed to only 138,328 pounds, the total domestic con sumption being about 500,000 lbs. The exports the following year were 600,000 pounds. In 1794 they had increased to 1,601,700 pounds, and in 1795 to 5,276,300. In 1860 tho production of ginned cotton amounted to 2,097,230,800 pounds, boing seven-eighths of tho total production of the whole globe, of which 1,765,115,735 pounds were ex ported. The cotton gin which produced such vast conse quences to the world, waa invented, as is well known, by Eli Whitney, of Worcester, Massachu setts. His attention was called to the subject while temporarily residing in Savannah, being on gaged in teaching a select school. The work was commenced under the auspices of Mrs. Greene, widow of General Greene, and under the most fa vorable circumstances. The history of Mr. Whit ney is, as is too often the case with men of genius, a sad one. The benefits of his invention were felt in every portion of tho globe, but to him was re served no reward, in a pecuniary point of view, for his labors. The importance of the invention was felt to be so great, that the machine was actually seized and curried off by force from tho shed in which it was constructed. And although ho se cured a patent, it was infringed on with impunity, and such was tho pressure against him, that be found it impossible to obtain redress in courts. After spending the best portion of his life in en deavoring to seenro those rights to which ho was so justly entitled, ho finally received an appropria tion from Congress which enabled him barely to cancel those obligations contracted through a protracted carenr of litigation. At an advanced period in lifo Mr. Whitney may bo said to have commenced the world anew, by engaging in the manufacture of guns in Connecticut, which enter prise proved ultimately quito successful.?luou-.?.
